Etymology: Nemipterus: Greek, nema, -atos = filament + Greek, pteron = wing, fin (Ref. 45335).
More on author: Bleeker.
Environnement : milieu / zone climatique / profondeur / gamme de distribution
Écologie
marin démersal; non migrateur; profondeur 30 - 100 m (Ref. 28016). Tropical; 22°N - 11°S, 68°E - 127°E
Indo-West Pacific: Gulf of Thailand to southern Indonesia. This species has been confused with Nemipterus marginatus.
Longueur à la première maturité / Taille / Poids / Âge
Maturité: Lm 10.3  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 14.0 cm SL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 3810); common length : 13.0 cm SL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 3810)
Épines dorsales (Total) : 10; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 9; Épines anales: 3; Rayons mous anaux: 7. Lower edge of eye lies below a line drawn from tip of snout to upper base of pectoral fin. Lower edge of suborbital very slightly emarginate; the posterior edge more or less straight. Dorsal fin origin about 4-7 scale rows from an imaginary line projected upwards from posterior edge of suborbital to dorsal profile. Axillary scale present. Color: Oblique golden yellow stripe from beneath eye to middle of maxilla. Upper body pinkish, silvery white below. This species closely resembles N. marginatus, but lacks the filamentous extension to the upper lobe of the caudal fin; the posterior margin of the suborbital is more or less straight, rather than evenly curved; and the upper stripe on the body is not divided anteriorly.
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: oval.
Little is known about the habits of this species. Minimum depth from Ref. 9773.
